Introduction: Simulation has become an integral part of health care education curricula that is used to teach a variety of topics, from emergency situations to physical diagnoses. Without further reinforcement, the skills learned through the simulation are subject to deterioration over time. Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice (RCDP) is a teaching method that was developed to resist this deterioration and achieve mastery of skills.

Objective: To describe the cases of oral and maxillofacial tumors (OMFT) resection and defects reconstruction under submandibular intubation (SMI) performed in our institution; secondly, to systematically review and analyze the characteristics of studies about SMI in oral and maxillofacial surgery to estimate the incidence rate of complication.
Method: Data related to all 6 patients included in this study were prospectively collected from November 2016 to November 2023. The tract for endotracheal tube was created by bluntly dissection from the submandibular area to the floor of mouth.
Background: Most of the studies on difficult intubation and laryngoscopy focused on American and European populations. However, Indians have distinct anthropometric characteristics compared to these populations. This study aims to determine the gender difference in inter-incisor distance (IID) cut-off marks to assess the ease of intubation in the Indian population.

Historically, children undergoing cardiac catheterization have been managed with general endotracheal anesthesia (GETA). However, recent practice has favored general anesthesia with total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). This study compares procedural outcomes in the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory (PCCL) for children undergoing low-risk cardiac catheterization with GETA vs.
